- Not latest RMagick version
- Not latest Ruby version
- Not latest bundled ImageMagick
But we are already having Ruby Devkit (MinGW). So let's get latest RMagick on Windows.
Install ImageMagick
After downloading from here, launch the installer. Then select the option to install C/C++ header files.
Install RMagick
For instance, ImageMagick is installed in c:/ImageMagick/6.6.4-Q16.(Append at 2010/10/18) Install path should not be contained whitespace
$ gem install rmagick --platform=ruby -- --with-opt-lib=c:/ImageMagick/6.6.4-Q16/lib --with-opt-include=c:/ImageMagick/6.6.4-Q16/include

Thank you! Just what I needed to help get the latest version of Refinery CMS going.
It is important to install imagemagick to a path that does not contain a space like C:\Program Files as the author did in his example, otherwise that rmagick install will not work. Thanks for the article, very nice!
Hi, Bill. I'm glad to be of help.
Hi, Matthew. Thanks for telling me the important thing. I add the append now.
Here is my tutorial to install RMagick on a Mac
http://bcaccinolo.wordpress.com/2010/11/09/install-rmagick-on-mac-os-x/
It's fine!
RMagick on Ruby 1.9.1 (i386-mingw32)
http://www.waydotnet.com/blog/2010/02/rmagick-on-ruby-1-9-1-i386-mingw32-work-d/
Thanks a lot to this post, this save my day
I am doing gem install rmagick --platform=ruby -- --with-opt-lib=C:\ImageMagick6.6.7-Q16\lib --with-opt-include=C:\ImageMagick\6.6.7-Q16\include
but that results in
checking for wand/MagickWand.h
but the file is there, I can see it.
Any hints?
Best
Zeno
Hi, zrr. Please re-check you are setting C:\ImageMagick6.6.7-Q16 to the PATH.
Dear Youhei-san
Does it not suffice to click the check-box in the installer "Add Application Directory to your system Path" or does that not suffice and do I also have to add C:\ImageMagick6.6.7-Q16 manually to the Path as well?
The Install-Path should not contain whitespaces, that I understand.
Best
Zeno
Okay, zrr-san. Is your whole error message like below?
http://old.nabble.com/Can%27t-install-RMagick-due-to-MagickWand-problems-td24323187.html
That is not because of wand/MagickWand.h . It's because of fail in extconf.rb .
Please check my another article:
http://phosphor-escence.blogspot.com/2010/12/if-you-fail-install-rmagick-on-mingw.html
Yes, that was the error, correct. I will try it again asap.
Hi
I tried to follow this tutorial and also combined with http://www.waydotnet.com/blog/2010/02/rmagick-on-ruby-1-9-1-i386-mingw32-work-d/#comment-144895279
After done all the settings and began to install the RMagick, suddenly I got this message
" cheking for stdint.h... *** extconf.rb failed *** "
Do you have any suggestion about this issue?
(1)
Please check you have installed header files

Please re-install your MinGW correctly.
Thanks Youhei
I did it right now :)
I combined your way and WayDotNet(http://www.waydotnet.com/blog/2010/02/rmagick-on-ruby-1-9-1-i386-mingw32-work-d/#comment-144895279) way
Now I made the tutorial base on your tutorial and WayDotNet tutorial in my language at http://www.megenep.com/article/507/instalasi-rmagick-untuk-rails-3-pada-windows
this was the solution I was looking for after hours of trying other how-tos. Thank you!

Hi
I am not able to install the rmagick even after installing ImageMagick . I was able to verify ImageMagick installing by issuing the command "identify --version". I followed the other link of yours:http://phosphor-escence.blogspot.in/2010/12/if-you-fail-install-rmagick-on-mingw.html , but i am not able to find gemspec file in that path and it is also throwing an error. Please help me resolving this error.
